Apart from the innovation space of STEM, they engaged in traditional Vietnamese and Israeli games, read Israeli literature books and learnt how to make Israeli cakes.

Israeli Ambassador Nadav Eshcar said the event aims to create an equal playground for disadvantaged children and help them understand more about Israel’s culture.

It is also expected to contribute to consolidating cultural ties between people of Vietnam and Israel in general and their children in particular.
